Only design nose masks for wearing while eating

Researchers in Mexico have designed a nasal mask that can only be worn while eating, and is worn under a full mask, according to Reuters.

Social media pioneers had mixed reactions to the idea, as some mocked it, while others found it would reduce the transmission of the virus.

The human cells that give people the sense of smell are a major entry point for the Corona virus, which makes the nose coverings important, according to Johns Hopkins University.

But the World Health Organization recommends that people wear masks that cover their noses, mouths and chins, to better protect against the virus.
